@absolutezero6190 . It says Yunnan bat coronavirus. Shi has a collection of closely-related coronaviruses from horseshoe bats in a remote cave in Yunnan province. All of the Yunnan horseshoe bat coronaviruses are solely owned by Shi, the collector. Shi has published tens of papers on this subject since 2013. In the 2013 Nature paper, she used two Yunnan bat viruses Rs3367 and RsSHC014.
On January 27, 2020, Shi suddenly uploaded the so-called RaTG13 bat coronavirus to NIH GenBank.
www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/nuccore/MN996532
From the name she used, it is obvious this is a 2013 virus in the same 2013 collection from her Yunnan horseshoe bats. Because RaTG13 has been identified as the source of COVID-19, and nobody else in the world had possessed this RaTG13 virus before Shi made it public, you can use your brain to draw the following conclusions: 1. All Yunnan bat coronaviruses mentioned in Shi's paper are natural viruses from Yunnan horseshoe bats Shi collected in 2011 and 2012. 2. Shi has possessed these natural coronaviruses since 2013. 3. Shi has done modifications on the natural viruses to finish human ACE2 receptor experiments. These natural bat coronaviruses are NOT applicable to human ACE2 at the beginning. Shi made it happen.
The informal Gallaher writing you posted is yet another rumor where Gallaher calls several peer-reviewed formal publications as "rumors". Gallaher does not have enough to write a paper, yet he opened his big mouth to attack other scientists. Gallaher falsely assumed that COVID-19 is a NATURAL evolution from RaTG13. Yes, if it is a purely natural evolution, it would take 69.5 years for RaTG13 to mutate into COVID-19. But from Shi's papers we know it is not natural, Shi did some man-made modifications on those bat coronaviruses.

@absolutezero6190 . You still don't get it, do you?
The Nature 2020 paper you showed is a double-edge sword. You use it to cut down the "artificial modification" theory, but it also backfires at your "natural transportation" theory.
You see, if RaTG13 is a natural coronavirus carried naturally on those Yunnan horseshoe bats, and now we know from the Nature 2020 paper that RaTG13 attacks human ACE2 cells on its own capability (i.e., no need of artificial modification), and by local aborigines' transportation from Yunnan to Wuhan wet market (the local people are not scientists, they don't know how to protect themselves from coronavirus infection), then the epidemic would start in Yunnan when the locals made first contact with the horseshoe bats, not in Wuhan.
In reality the entire disaster started in Wuhan, thanks for Shi Zhengli's scientifically-engineered transportation of the bat coronaviruses from Yunnan to Wuhan without breaking the holding capsules. Do you get it?
Let me use a law enforcement case to illustrate an analogy. Suppose now we have a homicide case caused by a propane explosion in a house. You the leading suspect have announced to the public that you moved lots of propane tanks to the house and stored them there. The CSI team has verified that the propane collected at the crime scene is bearing 96% similarity to the remaining propane in your remaining tanks in terms of chemical ingredient. As a juror I will convict you, no matter what you say. You argue that it is not murder. Yeah, maybe. We may not be able to convict you on 2nd degree murder (we'll see how things go in the near future), but it is surely manslaughter. You killed people. It is homicide whatsoever.
